Future Mythologies: North Pole Studio Printmaking Residency at Mullowney Printing Company.

Future Mythologies presents the culminating body of work of a printmaking residency between 5 artists from North Pole Studio and the master printers at Mullowney Printing Company. From January through June of 2025, North Pole Studio artists Eva Adneral, Aaron Cunningham, Annie Rose Macer, Dan Tran, and Scott Tullock spent six months exploring distinct printmaking methods: monoprinting, etching/drypoint, linocut, screenprint, and letterpress. This residency expanded access to both tools and ideas, and prioritized discovery through making with an emphasis on reflection and critique that fostered a collective exchange. 

Artists experimented with each print method without a fixed outcome in mind, allowing the process to guide their understanding and outcome. Reflection and group dialogue after each round of printing opened up new approaches and interpretations, creating a ripple effect of shared ideas. The works emerging from this process showcase personal narratives that speak both to individual identities and collective imaginations. 

These prints speak a new symbolic language - reimagining folklore, identity, and storytelling through ink and impression. What emerges is not just technical accomplishment, but the forging of myth: layered, expressive works that look both backward and forward. 

This exhibit will open on Thursday, November 6 from 5-8 pm during First Thursday. 

Gallery hours: Thursday - Saturday: 12-5pm, Sunday 12-4pm
